We always did tike Judge Ellis ; bul the Ashville Messenger has praised the gentleman up so well, so honestly, and ; so n ueli, we fear we have done him wrong. Elections. All the Returns show a gain of a member in Congress, from the State of Maryland, for the Demo crats ; and large gains for the Demo, crats in Georgia, making the Legisla , ture, heretofore whig, democratic ; in fact, every thhg goes as it ought to go, fr Southern lights, Southern Princi ples, and Southern Doctrines. We think if we would. follow up the plan of a smier State, and operate on a few of the transient vagabond- who infest our tate, we would have less runawiys, '.Itssyankee adventurers; less inflated representatives and panderers to sickly ' aristocracies, less of the mean and con tpmptible huckster, and political gam blers; but in' the aiead, we would have (he plain old country gentlemen, soma i . ' Of the olden time," Yes,. soine who wouid be the gentlemen and while they done what they thought proper, would sustain what they knew was right. Yes, such are what we re quire, and every act of South Carolina we are boutid in honor to sustain, as be ing congenial wi:h our own interests. ...Ffisbyteriun Synod.

II taken from the cow as soon as dropped, there will be no diffi eu'ty in leaching it to eat. Loblolly, made bi half a pint of corn meal and a jprt of new milk, given to it about three timet a day, will be sufficient to keep it. I) is the easiest thing imaginable to (eni the rail to suck up us food; by Thp'pfy pressing its head into the pan containing the rmxiure. with one hand, knd inserting the forefinger of the other tto its mouth, it will instinctively suck ; us beverage. If it is desirable to 'oband your milk, you may begin to , .rcrease the quantity which vou add to four loblolly, when the call is about three weeks old, putting in less mnk each day, until the calf imperceptibly foryeis tta taste altogether. When the lall" is six weeks old you may turn it out in a grass lot; but if you desire to push its growth, continue its loblolly twice a day ; by doing so you will in crease its M.zu lullv one thiid. A smoke consuming stove has been invented by James Coles, E?-q., of Cincinnati- The invention is based upon the principle that the continual intro duction ot cold air coning in contact with the heated smoke, produces cum bustion.

To save anxiety snd time, the plan has been adop ed in England, for every person who mails a letter, to write his or her naro on the bck. If the let'er fails .to reach the hands intended, it got s back to the person who wrote it. A very good plan except when the author does noi wish to be known. ' For the Girls. How many foolish girls have ruimd themselves b marry ing young men who hud nothing to re commend them but riches. "Is he rich?" has been the inquiry, when a euiior has presented himself. Foolish girls! Rather ask Is he intelligent 1 is heSndusirmur-? Is be vinuou? Lei these quetions be a. swered in the at- mmaiive, and if he ha not a second shirt to his back we will answer for his course, wealth aiav be lust, but the good qualities ot the heart ill alwas rema n, like me sunshine to warm and to biess. Remember this. A Present of Mexican Armor. Mr Buchan-o has presented to the National Institute at W ar.lngtorl, a coat of mad. consisting of breast, buck and helmet. They were captured in one of the battles of the Mexican war. The helmet bears cv aeuce oi several severe saD'e cuis, and a blow as . from musket. The weight ol the three articles is 25 pounds, also, the coat of a Mexican lancer, taken at the storming of Monterey.' There is a closer connexion between goou-sense ana goon-nature than t generally supposed. , " -1 Day le pronounced one of the most severe strictures on the fair sex. He wan asked if women cold keep a secret. "There is one eciet,' said h", "r nd thai is the only one they can keep their age." The Scientific American tells of a horse in Cambridge, Ma-s., that has five feet. The fi ih foot grows on the let hind leg. I: appear to bear us (uil proportion of the weight of the hore, and wears out a shoe as soon as the other feet. The repoit of the N Y.

Death is, at all times, an unwelcome visitor to every community ; even when his call H made on one in whom, while living, we had uo sptcial interest. We feel in rvery case I hat his presence is an intrusion on us, and an inter terence with our earthly pursuits and pleasures, a"d we shrink froui him. Hut when he is commibsionf-d to take from us, ia the prime of his life a companion and a friend whom we love, he fiils our hearts ith a deep gloom, and clothes us in sorrow grief and mourning. We think ol past pleasures in association with him we remember fond hones of the luiure indulged by him and wonder why the stroke ot death bas fallen on him thus early in life, rati er than on some other victim who could have been better soared ; and are only cheeked in this fruitless wonder by the knowledge of I he fact thai "it h appointed 'o ail men once to die," and that the God of heaven and earth, in the wisdom of his provi lence, irrevocably hxtsthe lime of each one. The subject of this notice was pos sessed of those noble and geiterou - quali ties of heart which attracted the intention and won the depei regard ol all who knew htm. Generously bestowing Ins iriendship, he received in return the unbooghi and sincere attachment of his associates and companions, and the warm devotion of the needy poor. In deed, we knew of no one in whom was blended at the same time so many bright and manly qualities and so man gene rous imputes. As a son hnd father, he was under and affectionate ; as a broth er, he was lond and impartial ; as a friend, he was firm, confiding, and con stant ; as a man, lie was honorable and just, lie is gne !. i he Dioom ot lite, which but now mantled his cheek, has withered like the blasted rose ; the an imated liwhi of his eve has laded into night ; his active limbs and manly lorm are cold and rigid tenants of the tomb. Hut, thoijgn ihis body is hid from our sifciu, he is not forgotten Mother and child brothers and isiers Iriends ai.O neighbors rich nnd poor, who low, with feelings alike creditable to the living and the dead, commingle their distresses and sorrows over bis early grave, will all fondly remember him. ti is many generous, noble, and benevo lent vir'uts toibid that he thould be for gotten. Indeed, he has impressed his image fondly on our hearts.and our will has no uuwet to resist the reeoi section ot hin. But he is none ! May he rest in peace ! In Morganton, on the 6 h inst. Mr. G. D.
